In honor of Mother's Day, let's check out a 2006 game taking place on that special day.
New York Mets at Milwaukee Brewers - May 14, 2006.
---------------------------------------
Shortstop Bill Hall provided one of the game's all-time best Mother's Day moments when he delivered a walk-off homer in front of his mother, Vergie, who had driven 10 hours from Nettleton, Miss., to see her son play. Hall was not only using a pink bat (it was the first year players had used the pink bats on Mother's Day), but his had his mother's name engraved on it instead of his own. He stepped to the plate in the bottom of the 10th with two outs and nobody on, and used that special bat to send the Brewers home with a 6-5 victory over the Mets.
